Hidden between a stand of mature puriri and the headland reserve
above secluded Swann Beach cove is this peaceful retreat, on the
market for the first time since the owner came here thirty summers
ago as a weekend/holiday escape from work in the city.
This
much-loved home is on three levels each with a bedroom, shower and
toilet. Decks are accessible on three sides from the main level.
The top bedroom has views across to Manly beach. The lower living
level could be a self-contained space for visitors or older family
members, or re-developed as the new owners wish.
Light, bright,
charming, with heaps of character, lovely outlooks from all
windows, are some of the comments made by visitors.
Schools,
the Whangaparaoa Plaza, the Leisure Centre are all within 2km of
the property. A boat ramp is two driveways away; Stanmore Bay and
Manly beaches are close by if more space is needed than Swann Beach
cove.
It is time for new owners to love the special qualities
of this home enjoying and cherishing it in their own way.

More about
Whangaparaoa Peninsula:
Whangaparaoa is Maori for Bay of Whales,
and pods of orca and dolphin are still spotted in the waters off
the peninsula. The peninsula stretches east for 11 kilometres into
the waters of the Hauraki Gulf to the north of East Coast Bays. The
island of Tiritiri Matangi lies three kilometres off its eastern
tip.
The town of Whangaparaoa sits on the peninsula's
southwestern shore, and is regarded as the start of the section of
coastline known as the Hibiscus Coast. Communities along the
peninsula include Red Beach, Stanmore Bay, and Manly. At the end of
the peninsula is Shakespear Regional Park and Gulf Harbour.
